The only reason I wrote this design is because I really wanted a simple round pattern with an obviously square table. Well, this accomplishes that very well, and has good light return as well! I like it in red-orange zircon, but works in materials from feldspar to rutile (RI = 1.52 - 2.62) with no changes. Suggested size = 5-10 mm
